This repository contains the Verilog-based projects developed during the PCS3635 course at Poli USP, focused on learning and implementing digital circuits on FPGAs.
These folders contain the weekly experiments developed throughout the course. Each week builds on the last, culminating in a full implementation of the classic Genius game (a memory sequence game) using Verilog only, targeting FPGA platforms.
The weekly progression covers key digital logic design concepts, including:
- Combinational logic
- Sequential circuits
- Finite state machines (FSMs)
- Clock dividers and counters
- Datapath and control unit design
These folders document the development of PlaySeq, a customized version of the Genius game created to assist children on the autism spectrum in developing logical reasoning through interactive gameplay.
- Week 0 – Planning and research
- Understanding our client’s needs
- Studying autism spectrum disorders (ASD)
- Defining pedagogical adaptations
- Weeks 1–4 – Implementation
- Verilog-based logic design
- FPGA integration
- Hardware interface construction
- Visual identity and player manual creation
The final version of the PlaySeq game can be extracted from the playseq_final.qar file located at the root of the repository.
Each week includes:
- Planning Report (before lab implementation)
- Final Report (after the lab session)
All weekly reports and sandbox project files:
📂 Google Drive – PCS3635
These reports contain:
- Datapath and control unit diagrams
- Reasoning behind design decisions
- Comprehensive ModelSim test outputs and analysis
